omg - that is some serious polling - looks nice too

It looks and performs amazingly

. £90 is OK considering the amount of features you get.

I was looking at this earlier and wondering if it would be a worthy replacement for my Steelseries Xai, looks like I have my answer

Looks like a nice mouse

Don't see the reason for a LCD on the bottom of it but the features and the software look pretty nice.

Be nice if they did a cheaper version without the LCD screen.

Having the option to change the LED colours is a bit of a useless thing also but I guess some people buy hardware for what it looks like more than how it functions.

I was looking at the Xai a while ago as I used to use a Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 and the shape seems so much similar.

I ended up getting another Razer Deathadder tho.

I have got the steelseries kinzu mouse that i bought from dabs gadget show even at wembley stadium a few years back, its a awesome mouse. The Sensei would be the ideal replacement for it

I want one just to try out the 11,400DPI/CPI Setting, perhaps the first mouse that is too sensitive for me to control. At the cost of $115 AUD makes it one of the cheaper high end mice.

This is one of the best mice that I have seen for some time, really like the colours

 

[Ravious]

I want one

Not too bad looking mouse, but I don't like the design

[Solidarity]

I'm not really sure what I think of this

90quid are they crazy ? lol dosent mater what this mouse can do and how many frykin settings u have, for 90 quid ull expect it to babysit and make tea lolz

Does this mouse use the same Avago 9500 laser sensor as the Xai or is it an entirely new sensor?

Would this beat the Ikari laser in performance? The Sensei is definitely very ergonomic as it allows both left or right hand use. This looks like the ultimate upgrade of the Kinzu and the Xai.

I've come directly from the Ikari to this, and i have to say it competes in every way. I was worried about not liking the shape as the Ikari fits your hard really snugly; but i have to say that i have had no issues so far! The only minor qualm i have is that whenever i startup my computer the profile reverts to the default.

Hey, that's cool. How do you like the 2 extra buttons on the ring and pinky finger side? They shouldn't be a problem if you don't program them for the specific game right?

Maybe you should make a copy of the default profile, save it to another safe storage and then overlap the existing default profile with your own profile? I haven't had a problem like that before. I have both the Kinzu and the Ikari. I really enjoy using the Ikari even for regular use and not gaming. My Ikari's scroll wheel is making high pitched squeeking sounds. Not sure why though. My Kinzu is having a problem of constantly double clicking when I single click. No idea why this is happening to my mice. I haven't had them for long either.

Im thinking of buying it. What's the warranty like. Looking around it seems like its only 1 year.
